Deer are a species in the Animal Crossing series, first introduced in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Male deer have a pair of antlers atop their heads, while female deer do not, making them the second villager species with a significant trait difference between male and female, the first being Kangaroos. Some deer villagers like Zell, Lopez, Bruce and Beau resemble antelope, a species of mammal which have horns instead of antlers and are more closely related to cows than they are to deer. There are eleven deer villagers so far.
